    Whipple Making Noise, please help me to ID it

    Bearing Noise Listening to that noise and knowing that most of the cars dont have that many miles on them I would guess it is belt adjustment. Most tensioner and idler bearings are all sealed units and dont usually fail with limited mileage. Since there is no adjustment at O.E. tensioner (it is...

    Clutch setting?

    clutch As far as adjusting most hydraulic clutches... you cant. pedal free play maybe- but no clutch adjustment. I assume the gt's clutches are all hydraulic. I remember reading somewhere that it didnt take to much to smoke a clutch if taken off in 3rd gear one too many times. Did you check...

    Local Dealer messed up lifting my car. How can I know what damage was done?

    Lift Looks like the lift may be an asymetrical lift and they had to crowd car over to the far right to exit out of car. That will in itself make car look crooked on lift because arms are extended all the way out on one side (which will cause that side to sag) and in closer on the other. I have...

    05 Diesel Excursion

    6.0 stroke Never seen so many problems and repairs on Fords 6.0 litre. They are in my shop almost daily. Besides terrible turbo lag, injector problems and oil leaking, you could chip, cold air intake and bigger exhaust and still not run as good as the Cummins or Duramax... Got an 05 excursion...

    Delete Thread Please delete thread. I'm sure he will have no problem selling it anyway. Still wonder why the thumbs down and B.S. were necessary. I'm not a car salesman. I own an auto shop and work on all his cars.

    Cannon Game...

    Had a neighbors cat get in my garage. (it had been declawed) He got on top of my 34 ford coupe to sleep and when I came in it startled him and he slid down back of trunk lid using the claws he still had left in his rear paws. 10 scratches through the clear coat. I don't hate cats... but don't...

    Big Rains out WEST..Forum Members

    reservoirs We'd need ten more years of unusually high snow accumulation and spring runoff to get water level up to normal in Lake Powell and surrounding large reservoirs. Here in CO. we are above average as of this last snow storm.
